A bit of a surprise for the first week of October, NVIDIA has released their latest 191.07 WHQL drivers, which seem to have a lot more in store than the previous 190.62 WHQL set. This release supports cards as far back as the GeForce 6-series and brings improvements to both specific games and finally adds support for PhysX on cards as far back as the 8800GTS!

New in Version 191.07

Adds support for OpenGL 3.2 for GeForce 8, 9, 100, and 200-series GPUs and ION GPUs.

Accelerates performance in several gaming applications. The following are examples of improvements measured with version 191.07 drivers vs. version 190.62 drivers (results will vary depending on your GPU, system configuration, and game settings):

Includes numerous bug fixes, including the following key fix (additional bug fixes can be found in the release notes on the documentation tab): For graphics cards supporting multiple clock states, 3D clocks correctly return to 2D clocks after exiting a 3D application.

This driver version adds support for NVIDIA PhysX acceleration on all GeForce 8‐series, 9‐series, 100‐series, and 200‐series GPUs with a minimum of 256MB dedicated graphics memory and a minimum of 32 processor cores (this driver package installs NVIDIA PhysX System Software v9.09.0814).
